Bøker av Damian Smith

Damian J. Smith here provides the first full account of the combined influence of crusade, heresy and inquisition in and about the lands of the Crown of Aragon until the death of James I of Conqueror in 1276.

James I of Aragon's book is packed with references to the culture, beliefs, geography and history of medieval Europe. It is a treasure trove of information on the image, power and purpose of monarchy, loyalty and bad faith in the feudal order, the growth of national sentiment, and military tactics.
